Identifying the pivot once the ball is gathered is the key to making the CC.

Plus in the theme of Good, Bad & Ugly I'm staying away from the Bad (looks funny, really unsure)... No call.
I agree...got to be able to determine when the ball is gathered/dribble ended and be able to identify the pivot foot from thereon.

And there are too many officials that call plays travels because it looks "ugly" rather than because the play is illegal itself. It's the "easier" call to make.
